Trouble with if in python

Question

Hey just starting to learn python and got some problems already I made a code with an if statement It should work but it isn\'t working can someone fix it and tell me what I did

Answer 1

raw_input() function waits for user to input data , it is similar to scanf() function in C. But the data which you input is stored as string, so we need to convert into our specified form like integer, float etc

Ex: y = raw_input("Enter data");

to convert the data into integer we need to use

y = int(y)

in the similar way we can convert into different datatypes
